Cavalry Audio and Executive Producer OSCAR ISAAC bring you a new true crime podcast... Join writer and narrator, EDGAR CASTILLO, a first generation Guatemalan American, as he explores the byzantine true story of the bizarre assassination of Rodrigo Rosenberg — an influential Guatemalan lawyer who was gunned down while on his Sunday morning bike ride in May of 2009. At his funeral, he posthumously released a YouTube video that declared, “If you’re seeing this video, it means that I've been murdered by President Alvaro Colom,” Guatemala's sitting President. The Rosenberg video unleashed a major political upheaval and one of the most unpredictable murder investigations in history, but that was only the beginning. You won't believe the conspiracy Edgar uncovers from interviews of those close to the case - including the person who hired the hitmen...
